Huntress continues to tell Oracle and Black Canary what she’s found. She looses contact with them unaware that Barbara has been attacked by some malign presence via her own computer. She is completely on her own.
Brusaw comes up on her while she’s snooping. He orders Vixen to attack her.
Helena finds her rental car and puts on her mask and costume. I wondered if there was any deeper significance for her doing this at this particular junction. Helena’s revenge crusade against the people responsible for murdering her family eventually evolved into an unrelenting quest to seek justice for those who couldn’t fight for themselves.

Huntress finds herself fighting Mari Jiwe McCabe aka Vixen, who’s suppose to be her backup at the cult camp but is currently in the thrall of cult leader Sovereign Brusaw. Helena tries to fight and reason with Vixen but she’s gone feral.

Oracle: I Wonder What That’s Suppose To Mean.
Black Canary: With Huntress, I Always Figure It Means Someone’s Gonna Get A Pounding. I’m
